Tutorial Overview: Building an End-to-End Data Science Workflow

This tutorial provides a detailed guide on constructing a comprehensive data science workflow that integrates traditional machine learning methods with the Gemini AI tool. We will cover the preparation and modeling of the diabetes dataset, followed by evaluation, feature importance analysis, and partial dependence visualization.

Step 1: Data Preparation

We begin by loading the diabetes dataset and preparing the data for modeling:

from sklearn.datasets import load_diabetes
raw = load_diabetes(as_frame=True)
df = raw.frame.rename(columns={"target": "disease_progression"})
X = df.drop(columns=["disease_progression"])
y = df["disease_progression"]

Step 2: Model Training

Next, we build a robust pipeline that includes preprocessing steps such as scaling and quantile transformation:

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
Xtr, Xte, ytr, yte = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.20, random_state=42)

We then train a HistGradientBoostingRegressor model:

from sklearn.ensemble import HistGradientBoostingRegressor
model = HistGradientBoostingRegressor(max_depth=3, learning_rate=0.07, max_iter=500)
model.fit(Xtr, ytr)

Step 3: Model Evaluation

We evaluate the model’s performance using metrics such as RMSE and R²:

from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error, r2_score
pred_te = model.predict(Xte)
rmse_te = mean_squared_error(yte, pred_te) ** 0.5
r2_te = r2_score(yte, pred_te)

Step 4: Feature Importance Analysis

To understand which features significantly impact the predictions, we compute permutation importance:

from sklearn.inspection import permutation_importance
imp = permutation_importance(model, Xte, yte)

Step 5: Visualization

We visualize the results, including feature importance and prediction residuals:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.barh(range(len(imp.importances_mean)), imp.importances_mean)

Step 6: AI-Assisted Insights

Using Gemini, we can generate executive summaries, identify risks, and propose next steps in the analysis process through natural language interaction:

sys_msg = "You are a data scientist. Return an executive summary and recommendations."
summary = ask_llm(f"Metrics: {metrics}, Importances: {top_importances}", sys=sys_msg)

Conclusion

This tutorial highlights the seamless integration of machine learning workflows with Gemini AI assistance, enhancing both model performance and interpretability. For additional resources, the full code can be found in our repository.
